Johannesburg residents have expressed mixed reactions over the reinstatement of Mayor Mpho Phalatse.

On Tuesday, the High Court in Johannesburg declared Phalatse to be the rightful Mayor of the City.In its ruling, the court said that all the decisions taken by Morero as mayor were unlawful, unconstitutional and invalid.One resident says, “To be honest I didn’t even know the old mayor is back in charge. Things change so often in Joburg, it’s even hard to keep up with the changes. I’m very glad that the DA mayor won the court case and is back in the office.

I believe she will continue to do a good job for Joburg and I’m looking forward to see her taking the DA forward. To me, it really doesn’t matter who runs the city. If the ANC was still in power all I would hope for is for them to run it correctly and deliver services to the residents,” adds another one.

The High Court in Johannesburg has declared Phalatse as the Executive Mayor of the City of Johannesburg. It also ruled that all the decisions taken by the ANC’s Dada Morero as the City’s mayor have been declared as “unlawful, unconstitutional and invalid”.
